Sincerity

I have listened to the latest music on the most advanced technological devices, and yet the effects on my mind and mood were nothing compared to the first time I heard "Traveling Band" by CCR on my dad's 8-track.

I have worked out in the nicest gyms on the shiniest equipment, and yet the effects on my sinews and soul were nothing compared to the hangin' and bangin' I did in my high school bedroom with two-and-a-half, 110-lb. sets of mismatched Kmart plastic and concrete weights!
